Falcon 9 lifts from SLC-40 at the beginning of yesterday’s 8:45pm EST launch window and begins its journey towards space. -- The rocket successfully delivered a payload consisting of the Nusantarasatu satellite, Air Force experimental spacecraft, and the Beresheet lunar lander. Several minutes after launch, the first stage Falcon 9 booster descended towards the Atlantic Ocean and touched down on SpaceX’s offshore droneship named ‘Of Course I Still Love You.’ This image is from my sound-activated camera that was placed several hundred feet from the rocket at SLC-40.
